New: Google has chosen a side in Trump's mass deportation campaign. Google is hosting a CBP facial recognition app to hunt immigrants; no indication Google will remove. At same time Google takes down apps for reporting ICE sightings

Deportations actually _increase_ housing prices because they shrink the construction industry.

The reduction in new houses being built swamps effects from lower demand

I say it over and over again: when you have that much money, you want to live where you want to live and you are simply not going to relocate because of marginal tax rates

NEW — I spoke to DoorDash about the White House claiming the company's report shows "inflation has been tamed" and whether that's an interpretation one should make. An economist also weighed in, pointing out dictatorships use data obfuscation as a tool, and right now they're "grasping at straws."
WH claims 'inflation tamed,' per DoorDash stats. Company says that's not in its report.
It comes the same week we learned the WH would likely not release key economic reports for October.

Anyone surprised that Republicans are fleeing the motte of "pedophile" to the bailey of "ephebophile" hasn't been paying attention.

So yes, as many feminist/gender/sexuality scholars and writers are noting, it all really does come back to a political movement built on a shared idea and that shared idea is rape, the idealism of rape, the social purpose and necessity of rape, and the domination and hierarchy it creates, all of it.

The republican party is the party of rapists. They worship at the altar of rape. They all want to rape and facilitate rape, whether it is of women directly or of the social benefits system, what matters is someone is violently dispossessed of their agency because that is their rightful allotment.

There’s this wildly capitalistic and incredibly poisonous idea sitting at the heart of much of modern society that dictates that were it not for imposed authority, people would immediately descend into barbarism. The concept is as cynical as it is fucking dumb

Everyone who posts this should note that Megyn Kelly has a 14-year-old daughter. Do not let her off the hook on this.
This was always where this was headed.
Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

Insanely there are three distinct strands of pedo apologia now. You have this craven cover-up strand, you have the birthrate perverts, and you have the manosphere/pua/incel creeps.

But they're all just trying to justify being child predators! Enough of this!

Madness, crazy immorality, the humiliation of senators…
America has long feared it would suffer the same fate as the Roman republic, but never quite truly appreciated how utterly absurd Roman elites had become by the time of the late republic.

Trump has done enormous harm to the country.
He is a deeply corrupt and venal man.
He is wildly unpopular, his agenda more so. He's lost the consent of the governed.
He is old, infirm & clearly no longer mentally competent to run a nation.

It is time now to start talking about him moving on👇
Growing list of reasons Trump should step down:
- Cover up of his involvement in notorious sex trafficking ring
- Unprecedented corruption, self enrichment
- Tariffs are historic, unprecedented abuse of power
- Illegal desecration of most important global symbol of American democracy
Mike Johnson is really committed to covering up for Trump and Epstein

New York Times social media guidelines prohibit expression suggesting partiality on things like ICE, execution of foreigners in fishing boats, or whether law is a thing.

However, tipping off notorious serial pedophiles about other reporters is absolutely fine.
Fall 2017: Then-NYT reporter literally warning Epstein that someone is "digging around again."

Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

A lot of us lived through the days of televangelists getting caught & then tearfully expounding on how they had seen the light, & we didn’t fall for that shit then, so we shouldn’t fall for it now.
i feel like there’s going to be a slew of important people tomorrow and in the weeks to come claiming to have had a damascene experience in the midst of all this… and i think it’s good to establish up front and right away that all of those people are huge fucking liars.
